Overview
Situated on the north side of Durham in the Research Triangle, Treyburn is a private Tom Fazio design that plays over rolling terrain that creates constant elevation change throughout the round. Numerous creeks play an integral role in the strategy at Treyburn, as they often cross near the fronts of greens, leaving players to decide whether to attack in regulation or lay back, especially if they’re out of position off the tee. Some tee shots are tight, including at the demanding par-4 18th, considered one of the more difficult finishers in the area. The narrow tree-lined tee shot plays up to the top of a hill that falls to the left, leaving players an approach to a green closely guarded by a creek running across the front and left side of the putting surface.

“Hard for me to rate the conditioning as it had poured the night before I played (which I had no idea about until I checked in at the pro shop). Nice Fazio design that is fun to play but nothing too memorable."

“I was told by to staff the course was Tom Fazio’s first course in North Carolina. Built as an afterthought of a subdivision it’s very fun to play. Much more up and down terrain than you would expect. If your in the area a great course to play."

“Treyburn is a layout in excellent condition and fun to play. The course rolls up , down and along a ridge with the clubhouse at the highest point. Without a doubt the feature hole is number 18, a slightly downhill left to right hole with well placed bunkers and a creek hard against the green. The second shot is a "kodak moment shot". The course also features a nice mix of short and long holes. The par fives, particularly number four, "dare" you to take a risk/reward shot."

“Really good track in the Durham area that somehow manages to keep bent grass greens in great shape in July when it was 95 degrees out every day. Definitely worth your time if you get a chance to play here. Good balance of holes that you can make biride on if you are to precise and holes that will blow up your card if you get careless."

“This is an underrated and lesser know Tom Fazio course. This private course is just a little shy of excellent. The terrain is interesting, clubhouse wonderful and routing brilliant. It has one of the most difficlult closing holes in North Carolina."

“Treyburn is a fantastic course if given the opportunity to play. The course was in very good shape and the greens were some of the best in the area in my opinion. Great piece of land and playable for low and high handicappers. The hybrid tee option makes it very enjoyable as this course can be punishing if you are not approaching from the right distances. If you are in the area and able to get on this private course, I think it is a must play in the triangle area of North Carolina."
